Why We Can’t Have World Peace

31 Aug 2023 – We can’t have world peace as long as the US government’s foreign policy is to (militarily) conquer the world. Western think tanks refer to this grandiose wet dream to dominate the world as US “exceptionalism” and “hegemony.”

Every day through word and deed the US overtly (e.g., AUKUS to dominate China), and covertly (CIA with MI6 help), carry out its grandiose plans.

AUKUS is a pretend “defense” alliance between Australia, the UK, and the US with outreach to include Japan and South Korea. However, the alliance is seen by China as a military threat, especially in regard to Taiwan.

Russia and China resist disarmament because they see their countries encircled militarily by US/NATO, and now AUKUS. Weaker nations, especially socialist-leaning governments, see themselves being overthrown secretly by the CIA or by (illegal) US economic warfare (sanctions).

Unlike the Germans under Hitler, the US has a more effective propaganda machine to convince the public that the US is the “good guy” despite all of the factual evidence to the contrary. That the US can’t be trusted is widely known by BRICS and the Global South.  (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa make up the economic group called BRICS.)

The Pentagon supports the US government’s delusions of grandeur with “full spectrum dominance” which means military superiority on land, air, sea, space, and cyberspace. This scheme is super expensive and explains why the US military budget is so absurdly huge.

World peace is impossible as long as the US relies upon war and threats of war.  In reality, the so-called “defense” business is in truth the US War Business, with the code phrase “national security” used to manipulate Congress and the public for ever bigger budgets.

An important question for activists: WITHOUT WAR AND THREATS OF WAR WOULD THE US ECONOMY COLLAPSE?

 World peace is virtually impossible unless the United Nations transforms from a treaty-based organization to a world constitution that yields a world (federal) government. History shows that treaty agreements can’t be trusted. They are unreliable and too easily broken by national self-interest over the world’s public interest.

World federalists supporting the EARTH CONSTITUTION (EC) know what is needed to save the world:  Either a “new UN” under the EC, or Earth Federation government with a World Parliament under the EC.

Can we imagine a GLOBAL LEADERS PSYCHOTHERAPY SUMMIT conducted by psychologists and world federalists? Key leaders of powerful nations, like the rest of us, at times, can benefit from professional help.
